The Triple Output E36300 Series Gives You the Performance of System Power SuppliesOn the bench, the 160 watt triple output E36313A is ready for your application. With low output ripple/noise and accurate voltage/current measurement, you can test with confidence — and power your next insight.

More confidence to power your design The accurate voltage/current programming and readback capability provide excellent control on the power supply and power measurement. The low, normal mode noise specifications assures quality power for precision circuitry applications, enabling you to power your design with confidence. Besides the 0.01% load and line regulation, the E36313A can also maintain a steady output when power line and load changes occur.

More convenience and productivity with intuitive and easy-to-use front-panel interfaceThe 4.3-inch LCD color display can show the voltage and current of all three channels at the same time, and the color-coded channel also simplifies manual set-up. Two individual knobs for voltage and current with rotary encoder control for precise setting, and keypad allow quick adjustments and configurations in less time. The user E36313A interface is intuitive and makes operation easy and improves your productivity.

In Data Logger View, you can log data on multiple traces. Here the voltage of output 1, output 2 and output 3 are captured over 30 seconds.

Data logger view The E36313A can also function as a data logger. Data can be simultaneously logged to the large color display and to a file on all three DC outputs. Measurements are spaced by the sample period, which is programmable from 200 milliseconds to 60 seconds. For each DC output, voltage measurements, current measurements, or both can be logged. Each reading is an integrated voltage or current measurement. The data logger display can be saved as PNG or BMP file formats for use in reports. The logged data can be saved or exported to a CSV file.

More test throughput via connectivity and programming languages The E36313A ships standard with USB and supports the easy-to-use SCPI (standard commands for programmable instruments) programming language that lets you create fast and simple programs with transient response faster than 50 μs and fast command processing time less than 10 ms. You can also program the instrument with the power supply’s interchangeable virtual instruments (IVI) driver.

More protection for your device under test (DUT) The E36313A is fully integrated with Over Voltage Protection (OVP), Over Current Protection (OCP), and Over Temperature Protection (OTP) in order to prevent damage to the DUT. Security features such as the keypad locking capability precludes accidental front panel usage. Its physical lock mechanism ensures secure instrument storage.

Auto series/parallel mode Channel 2 and Channel 3 of the E36313A can be set to series or parallel mode to double the output voltage (up to 50 V) or current (up to 4 A) respectively. The setting is done through the front panel display with graphical user interface instructions. No external wiring between channels is required.

Less cost and saves space with independent outputs All three outputs on the E36313A can be turned on and off independently, so you are essentially getting three power supplies in one instrument, saving maintenance cost as well as bench space, as you can power up multiple analog/digital circuitries or devices with a single instrument.

Less acoustic noise The E36313A, like all E36300 Series models, is one of the quietest power supplies in its class. It automatically lowers the fan speed under the load / no load condition to eliminate annoying acoustic noise through a thermal control circuit. At a typical noise level of less than 26 dBA under no load condition and less than 50 dBA under full load condition, it allows you to work in a quiet and undisturbed environment.

Enhanced measurement capabilities

All three outputs can be viewed simultaneously.

The measured values and setting for voltage and current are displayed for each output.

Voltmeter/ammeter: meter view The E36313A power supplies has built-in voltmeter and ammeter functions used to make measurements without additional wires or the added complexity of current sense resistors or current shunts.

Control from any browser The E36300 series power supplies can be controlled via a standard web browser. The Web GUI operation is identical to operating the real front panel on power supplies.

Convenient front and rear output terminals The E36313A uses 3-way binding posts on the front panel for connection to the DUT. The binding posts accept standard banana plugs, bare wire, and spade-lug connectors, as well as optional recessed binding posts. To avoid setup and connection errors, the binding posts are color-coded to the control keys and the display. The E36313A also offers rear output terminals for easy wiring, which is ideal for both bench and system setup.
